I'd like to do a 2.12 release this week.  There are a few changes that
may help some people, but nothing enormously exciting.

If you can build from CVS and let me know on the list I'd appreciate
it.



distcc-2.12  NOT RELEASED YET

  FEATURES:

    * New --log-level feature allows logging of only errors rather
      than messages for each connection.

    * IPv6 support now works better when distcc is configured with
      --enable-rfc2553.  The server can normally accept either IPv4 or
      IPv6 connections.

    * New --with-docdir configure option to set install location for
      documents.  The default is the same as previously.  Patch from
      Harold L Hunt II.


  INTERNAL:

    * GNU-style ChangeLog is now included in the package.  Please keep
      it up to date if you make your own changes!


  PORTABILITY:

    * setgroups() was broken by Mac OS X Panther so that it will not
      accept setgroups(0, NULL) to clear the group list.  Instead we
      now set the group list to our single primary gid.  Suggestion
      from Wayne Davison.

    * sendfile problems on FreeBSD 4.9-RC fixed.  Patch from Allan
      Saddi.

    * MAXPATHLEN is provided if it's not defined, which is the case on
      GNU Hurd.  Reported by Santiago Vila as Debian #219600. 


  BUG FIXES:

    * Check pkg-config information GNOME/GTK+ is now checked at
      configure time, not build time.  This is a bit quicker than
      running the script for every file we build, and means that
      PKG_CONFIG_PATH only needs to be set for configure.


  DOCUMENTATION:

    * Small documentation corrections.
